POETS' PLACE

A Pure Purim Presentation to Please Prosaic APPetites

PURIM IS APPROACHING

by Alona

the Problems on the Planet can make one into a Pessimist
the Political situation is a PuPPet show
at times, I am PerPlexed about my Purpose
what Pains me is the Plastic that is Polluting
our once Pristine Paradise.

keeping a Positive PersPective, we are here to Praise and be Peaceful
the Prison of our Past does not Pertain to the Present
to Perceive the Puzzle Pieces is Part of the Picture
it's knowing that it's a Process. We're not Perfect
but we are Powerful People
the Plan is PrePared for us
to Possess our Potential for sPiritual ProsPerity.

and another Purim Playful Presentation by Alona

we know that Pasta, Potatoes and Pizza put on Pounds
Peanut butter, Pickles and Persimmon exPectant women Prefer
I Promote Parsley, PaPaya, Pineapple and Pureed Pears

and to Prevent Paunch, I Prescribe
graPefruit and graPe diet
and good old Plain d i e t i n g.
Post Purim, Preferably.

And on to Spring...

Garden of Children

by Lori Rubabshi

I passed a beautiful garden today
Adorned with striking colors and shapes
With each plant and flower
So carefully placed.

Then I came home to
My garden of children.

The light-colored flower with green specks
Is one that thrives in sunshine.
Like ivy, the younger one grows
And dances his dance
To heights of golden amber.

The middle flower
Catches sparks of stardust
While flying on a breeze.

The tallest is first in my graden,
Sturdy, and full of grace.
The youngest is soft and new
Like the whisper of baby's breath.

And then there's my rose,
The only one of her kind.
And I, too, attend to their needs,
So carefully
Sometimes giving a bright smile — for light
Soft words — for growth
Or showers of prayerful tears.
So that my garden flowers
May blossom and grow
Revealing their own colors
Defining their own shapes
Creating their own
Bouquet of forever.

And a third selection. A different angle on the Professional Party Planners who will make all the arrangements for your Simcha for a fee...

My Party Planner

by Esther K.

Recommended by the best
Cost — unbelievably affordable
Just follow the steps in His plan.

Complete confidence in His work,
Perfection is the outcome
Inner peace and serenity
Happiness inside and out.

Thank You, Hashem,
There is no worry
Only a guarantee that this is correct
We pray, say Tehillim, and give charity.

That's the Plan.
Doesn't everyone know
That You are the Planner
Of our party?
